Chorus 1
We just want to be high and live our way
You can’t tell me what to do or what to say

All I desire
Is taking it higher
If you deny it
We burning the fire
Sparking majorly
Feels great to be
Living creatively
Chorus 2
If ever a man tries to take your high away
It’s only because that man has been lead astray

The fire is blazing
Grades are various
